Home Secretary Theresa May has launched a legal challenge against the decision to let radical cleric Abu Qatada stay in the UK.
Mrs May took the step after judges ruled last month that Qatada should not be sent to Jordan to face terror charges.
The Special Immigration Appeals Commission (SIAC) ruled that sending him home to go on trial would breach his human rights.
The panel decided there was a risk evidence obtained using torture would be used against him, despite assurances from Jordan.
Theresa May: "Qatada is a dangerous man" The Home Secretary has now submitted grounds of appeal to the Court of Appeal as she attempts to have the decision overturned.
It can only be challenged if it is found that there were legal problems with the commission's ruling.
Qatada was released on bail from Long Lartin prison last month after the latest twist in his case and is living with his family in north west London.
At the time of the SIAC ruling, Mrs May insisted in the Commons that Jordan had given satisfactory assurances about its legal processes.
She said: "Qatada is a dangerous man, a suspected terrorist, who is accused of serious crime in his home country of Jordan.
"The British Government has obtained from the Jordanian government assurances not just in relation to the treatment of Qatada himself, but about the quality of the legal processes that would be followed throughout his trial."
Qatada is said to have wide and high-level support among extremists, and featured in hate sermons found on videos in the flat of one of the September 11 bombers.
The extremist has battled deportation for over a decade and has so far thwarted every attempt by the Government to remove him.
Once described as Osama bin Laden's right-hand man in Europe, he has to obey strict bail conditions including a 16-hour curfew and internet ban.
